Edgar

CosmosCall of the Twisted CityEibon Antique Shop

Edgar is one of the game's healers, capable of topping up the party's HP with his Skill and Ultimate. His healing abilities, however, are very stationary. His skill makes him stand still, while his Ultimate is applied in a fixed area. This can make it difficult for Edgar to heal his team when facing mobile bosses and enemies.

Build Guide

Strengths

  • Strong single-target and area healing
  • Can fully charge an ally's Ultimate every 30s with his passive Gentle Edge when Charge is triggered

Weaknesses

  • Stationary healing leaves him vulnerable
  • Ultimate is a fixed area, less effective against mobile enemies

Best Teams

Edgar Charge Support

Focuses on the Charge Eclipse Cycle, allowing Edgar to charge a large amount of Ultimate Energy for the active character. The Lakshana character applies Remora to reduce enemy movement and attack speed.

Use Edgar's Skill to heal and apply Remora, then swap to Lakshana to trigger Charge.

With Charge, Edgar's passive fully charges the active character's Ultimate.

Repeat every 30 seconds.

Edgar Blossom Support

Edgar provides healing while the team focuses on Blossom reactions. Zero triggers Blossom, and Jiuyuan strengthens it.

Heal with Edgar's Skill or Ultimate as needed.

Use Zero to apply Blossom, and Jiuyuan to amplify it.

Edgar's passive can also help charge Ultimates in this team.

Skill Priority

3

Weight of Knowledge (Support Skill)

Upgrade to increase damage when switching to Edgar, but not urgent.

3

Combat Practice (Basic Attack)

Low priority since Edgar doesn't use basic attacks often.

4

Finnegan's Wake (Ultimate)

Deals large damage and provides healing over duration. Upgrade after improving Skill.

5

Wild Current (Skill)

Most of Edgar's healing and damage comes from his Skill. Prioritize improving this skill to improve its effects.

How to Play

Hold the Skill button to channel healing and damage. Use Ultimate to place a healing domain for sustained DPS. Edgar thrives in Charge team compositions, as his passive can fully charge an ally's Ultimate every 30 seconds.

Rotations

  1. 11. Hold down Skill to heal and deal damage.
  2. 22. Use Ultimate when your main DPS needs healing and is within range.
  3. 33. In Charge teams, use Edgar's Skill to apply Remora, then swap to Lakshana to trigger Charge and instantly charge an ally's Ultimate.

Tips

  • Hold the Skill button for more healing; be ready to dodge if needed.
  • Use Ultimate to heal your DPS while they continue attacking.
  • Edgar is vulnerable while using his Skill, so time it carefully.
  • Take advantage of Gentle Edge to charge Ultimates to full in Charge teams.
